[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 559116, member: 9240"] The only potential regret may be not getting the Sport version. That version is seriously heavy, but seriously great optically. The bokeh I get on my bird shots is soooo good compared to what I used to get from the 150-500mm. And I'm not talking distant stuff, I'm talking from scattered branches within the same tree. I managed to grab it at an amazing sale price at B&H a while back ($200 off, and the USB dock and a $250 UV filter were thrown in), so it was a no brainer (I'd been waiting for a year to buy it). Whether or not it's worth $1000 more depends on how much and how you'll use it. But my love for the Sport does not discount how good the Contemporary is. For the hobbiest it's wonderful. [/QUOTE]
